Uranium pellets cool after being baked at the Ulba Metallurgical Plant in Ust-Kamenogorsk, Kazakhstan, on Tuesday, Oct. 23, 2007. The uranium pellets will be used to fill the fuel rods which power nuclear reactors.

Uranium concentrate, commonly known as U3O8 or yellowcake, sits in the Uvanas processing facility near the East Mynkuduk uranium deposit in Kyzemshek, Kazakhstan, on Thursday, Oct. 18, 2007. Yellowcake is the end-product of the in-situ leaching process employed in the nearby East Mynkuduk uranium mine.

A pipe leads into a production well at the Eastern Mynkuduk uranium mine outside Kyzemshek, Kazakhstan, on Thursday, Oct. 18, 2007. Uranium is mined here using a process called in-situ leaching. A production solution, made primarily of sulfuric acid, is pumped into a production well which liquifies the uranium underground. The uranium-rich production solution is then pumped out of the ground and sent for processing into yellow cake, also known as U3O8.
